Install Sublime 3 'subl' Command Line Tool

Check your $PATH if you have /usr/local/bin and if not add the following line to the very beginning of your ~/.bash_profile file (it is a hidden file).

export PATH="/usr/local/bin:$PATH"
# or if you want to be explicit where your SHELL will look for binaries:
# export PATH=/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin

If you want to edit the above hidden file in Sublime (and you are running OS X 10.9 and up):

• Start Sublime and hit Cmd + O (or choose File > Open)
• Navigate to your home directory - Cmd + Shift + H
• Toggle the hidden files - Cmd + Shift + .
• Find .bash_profile and hit Return (or the Open button)

Then create a link to the subl helper tool:

ln -s /Applications/Sublime\ Text.app/Contents/SharedSupport/bin/subl /usr/local/bin
# NOTE: change /Applications to where it resides if you did put it in a different spot

To set up Sublime as the default editor in your ~/.bash_profile add this at the end of the file:

export EDITOR='subl -w'
